Phenomenon and the RPGA present

Special Guest

Robert Wiese

Robert Wiese was the only RPGA staffer to survive the TSR layoffs prior to the WotC takeover. He is now the head of RPGA HQ in Seattle.

Robert is coming to Phenomenon to run some 3rd edition D&D, help with the introduction of Living Greyhawk to Australia and to answer any questions he can about the RPGA and D&D.

But more than that, Robert wants to take the time to socialise and talk with as many gamers as he can and to PLAY some of OUR games so he can see for himself how Australian gaming differs from North American gaming. Please make him feel welcome.

LIVING DEATH - PHENOMENON 2000

 

Ring Around

A one-session Living Death™ Adventure, for 4-6 heroes by Claire Hoffman

A "World's Fair" Module

1893 - Early July - Chicago, Illinois

 

An exhibition of grand magnitude set in a world that teeters on the brink of financial chaos. The Columbian World Exhibition, otherwise known as The Chicago World's Fair of 1893. A melting pot of humanity and a exhibition of much that is technologically advanced, and much which is culturally unique to various areas of the world. The problem with moving artefacts from one part of the world to another is that there are some who don't like artefacts being moved, and there are those would stop at nothing to ensure that those who move them are punished. There are also things, which are awakened by such a move. Things of fiery disposition and seeking vengeance.
A postcard of a building at the Fair, with tickets to the Exhibition, was delivered in the early mail. The letter was scented with a cloying perfume, that of wild roses:

 

"Cousin,

Looking forward to your arrival Sat. I know how important tea time is to you, so I found the perfect place, the French Bakery!

Richard R. Finch"
